NECA announces new line of figures from The Muppets

NECA have shared the following teaser image and confirmed they are bringing The Muppets into the NECA circle of action figure licences. The image includes the hands and arms of Kermit, Gonzo, and Fozzie


This is the first of the licences previously held by Diamond Select Toys before they were wound up to move to another company. In this instance, the fact that NECA's parent company, Ad Populum, acquired Diamond Select Toys may have been a part of this new line for The Muppets.


While we look forward to these new Muppets figures, we are also excited by what this might mean for other former-Diamond lines like Lord of the Rings.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
